This program is read by Chad Michael Murray

New York Times bestselling author Heather Graham has teamed up with celebrated actor and celebrity icon Chad Michael Murray to weave a tale of passion and danger in the captivating thriller audiobook, American Drifter.

A young veteran of the US Army, River Roulet is struggling to shake the horrors of his past. War is behind him, but the memories remain. Desperate to distract himself from the images haunting him daily, River abandons the world he knows and flees to the country he’s always dreamed of visiting: Brazil.

Rio de Janeiro is everything he hoped for and more. In the lead-up to Carnaval, the city is alight with music, energy, and life. With a few friends at his side, River seems to be pulling his life together at last.

Then he meets the enchanting Natal, an impassioned journalist and free spirit—who lives with the gangster that rules much of Rio.

As their romance blossoms, River and Natal flee together into the interior of Brazil, where they are pursued by the sadistic drug lord, Tio Amato, and his men. When River is forced to kill one of those men, the chase becomes even deadlier. Not only is the powerful drug boss after them, the Brazilian government is on their trail as well.

Will the two lovers escape—and will River ever be free of the bloody memories that haunt him?

This audiobook adventure is equal parts passion and suspense, enhanced by the vivid backdrop of Brazil

Reseñas de la Crítica

"I have mixed emotions about authors reading their own work. Those who aren’t performers usually just read. Such is not the case with Chad Michael Murray. As one of the authors as well as an accomplished actor, his performance puts the finishing touch on his collaboration with Heather Graham." -<i>LiteratiLiteratureLovers</i>

Intriguing, fun, and unexpectedly thrilling

-I really enjoyed how the story unfolded. I was worried about how it would end because people were still after him with 30mins left but it wrapped up nicely.
-I did not like having to constantly rewind, then eventually re-listen to the prologue and chapter one because CMM was almost whispering until at least chapter 3 and apparently I work in a loud enough environment to not know what was going on.
Once other characters were introduced though, CMM's performance got way better. I started to believe those characters were speaking to me in their own voices.
-I would recommend this book so anyone who dreams of escaping to another country and finding peace. I will be checking out other novels by Heather Graham and would listen to CMM again.

Amazing & therapeutic

I’ve worked with Chad and gotten to know him. I had no idea this would change my life and hit so close to home. Reminding me that even though when I was in the military it changed me but I found my way back making me the man I am today. I love you
Chad. Thanks so much. -Just Josh

Hidden Gem

Cop-out Ending

Just finished this book and it's a NO for me. The ending was a blindside but not in a good way. Instead of tying up numerous loose ends, the author closed the door with an unsatisfying conclusion and made me feel cheated.

Based on the book's summary, I was expecting some fun cat-and-mouse adventure. That didn't happen either. There was no intensity in the pacing, no mounting suspense. Character development was miniscule at best, which is why, I suppose, the author felt she could get away with the ending.

I had high hopes for this novel based on the summary and the only review available. Huge letdown.
